Version of the Killing Of Mr.. Hay.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
JEFFERsoNvILLE, Ind, July 12.-The alleged
interview with murderer Robinson, published
in this mornings papers, Is a tissue ci false
hoods manufactured out Of whole cloth. Rob-
ipson was not educated at Aberdeen, Ohio, nor
anywhere and has made no such statements az
appeared in the morning papers. The Journal
correspondent called upon murderer Robinson
at the prison this afternoon, and
found him seated on a cot, reading q newspaper.
From him the following statement Of the trag-
edy and the causes which led him TO take the
life of his neiehbor was obtained:
Sometime last April went over to my farm,
adjoining the Hay farm, to fix some fencing,
and while at work near the Hay resi-
dence, was accosted by Mrs. Hay and
her two daughters, Belle and Addie. They
abused me, and called me all kinds of bad names,
saying had no right to stop up their roadway
and they would tear down the fence. paid no
attention to them, knowing that had a right to
do what pleased on my own premises and
Furthermore they had another outlet without
passing through my field. They finally came
out and commenced tearing down my
fence. told them not to touch the fence. and
when Mrs. Hay refused, showed her away.
was arrested on a complaint for assault and fined
before Justice Rodges, of Charleston Later on
l was at the same place putting up fencing they
had torn down., and Sam Hay came out with
revolver in his hand and threatened to shoot me.
He also threatened to shoot me at another time.
Two weeks ago l was down on my farm.
when / noticed passing
through the field where 1 had my cattle She
Belle Hay. She stopped and commenced
abusip- me, saying had a revolver and was fol-
lowing TO kill her. told her had revolver,
and held it up so she could it. but did not in
tend to harm her with it. She had me arrested
for that and the case was compromised. NV
attorneys and their attorneys then fixed up a
compromise, that they were to pass through
the premises if they would keep
up the fences, until the suit abont the road way,
pending in the Circuit Court was decided. They
violated the agreement by failing to keep up the
fence. and when told Hay about the matter,
he threatened to shoot me- 1t wss last Satur-
day a week ago. l then told him that wanted
nothing to do with him. any member Of his
family. That the last time
saw him until the killing occurred.
On that day drove down to my farm in compa-
ny with my daughter Lille, and my hired hand
James Colvin. saw Sam Hay and his sister
Belle coming mp the road, and he commenced
cursing me. Then he drew a revolver, and said
he would kill me- l took my gun from my wag-
on and shot him. That is all / can tell you. as
my attorneys have advised me not to talk to
newspaper men."
Coroner Coats returned verdict in the case,
which is as follows: Samuel L. Hay came to
his death by wound from a gun-shot fired by
Jacob Robinson. citizen Of Clark county, State
of Indiana, on the morning of Saturday, July 8,

LUMBER MANUFACTURE.
Only Five Merchant Mills on the Lower
Columbia, and the Reason Why.

The total annual product of
logs of the Astoria timber district
is now about 100000 feet and
the market is chiefly at and near
Portland, where the first mills
were built and where they have
continued. At Astoria there are
now two mills, the Trullinger
mill, capacity $4,000 feet per day,
and the Clatsop mill, capacity co.
600 feet per day. The Knappton
mill, directly opposite Astoria,
saws 10000 feet per day. The
Skamokawa mill saws 10000 feet
per day, and the Oak Point mill
$4,000 feet per day. 1t, will be
seen that but little of the timber
in the Astoria district is worked
up at home. Most of the annual
product goes out in the rough
form of logs, and the profit OF
manufacture is lost to the city.
The cause of this is that the
capital and productive energy Of
the country is otherwise engaged,
finding up to this time profitable
employment in the salmon indus
try. Small notice has been taken
of the great timber resource and
of the rare and peculiar local ad-
vantages for lumber manufacture

SALT AND GAS.

In speaking of the chances of the Wich-
tia Mining and Investment company Of
finding gas, Mr.. Thomas McCampbell yes
terday gave some information about the
shaft he sunk near ten Years ago about I'VE
miles east of the city. He stated that the
gas bubbles out of the water constantly
and viii burn in good sized fame on top
of the water. Near $50 feet porous sand
stone near ten feet thick was reached, from
which the gas escaped At so feet the
salt water came in so fast as TO stop work.
At present the salt water in the shaft IS
500 feet deep and through this the gas
finds its way to the surface.
The state chemist had analysed the salt
water and Il per cent was salt 1t was
suggested that salt water from the shaft
could be drawn in sufficient quantities TO
make a large amount Of salt.
